Title: Cam Locking Kit
Post by: Malcolm_D on 04 May 2021, 20:15:24

Even if SWMBO makes me sell my Elite I am going to change the timing belt before she goes. To be honest the Boss has a point in that the Elite is surplus to requirements and doesn’t get used enough.
To replace the belt I need to borrow or hire a locking kit. Any members in The York / Leeds area with one that they would be willing to lend me? I would love to buy a Sealey kit as I am addicted to buying tools, but she would kill me!  :o
If I cannot manage to borrow one are they available to hire?
I plan to do the job sometime between 19 and 26 May.

Swmbo has made exactly that point to me many times over the last couple of years.
Being an idiot who is a glutton for punishment, I not only kept it, but bought a Boxster as well.  ;D

You’re brave!
I’ve just seen a Lotus Carlton for 120K, it has only done 4565 miles  :o Rather churlishly she refused to let me buy it!  ;D

I can sell you a second hand kit if that's any good? I don't need 2 v6 locking kits.
